Homophobia

There is a poster on my campus.  It isn't very big, but I think its causing a big discussion.  Here it is:  

For those of you who can't read Chinese, the poster is talking about a meeting to discuss homosexuals.  So that people who aren't familiar with homosexuals and their lives can learn about it.  This is a big deal because in this country a lot of people are very homophobic.  Which is sort of interesting because they are not religious.  I'm not sure what to think of it.

But there are 8 different people (myself included) who have posted this photo on renren (China's facebook).  Some people were talking about how its sad that they will be in class, or look at my great school...the comments that I understood were generally positive.  It was also interesting because as I walked by it there were A LOT of people stopping to read it, where most people ignore the posters on campus.  So, I know where I'll be Sunday night (checking this out!).

This is a copy of my 人人 page showing 4 of us posting different photos of this poster.

Some people on renren weren't happy about the poster, but most of them seemed either neutral or supportive.  Lots of people said "我的学校开放“ ，literally my school is open. 

Quick update.  More mixed results.  People are either really for or really against it.  I'll throw in an extra photo too. ^^
